New Balance 2002R Protection Pack Trainers - Brown/Grey - Size 6.5 UK

The 'Protection Pack' series typically features a deconstructed aesthetic with layered, protective overlays, offering a distinct visual style while maintaining the core comfort and performance of the 2002R model.

While inspired by running shoes and featuring N-ergy cushioning, these trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. For intense athletic training, dedicated running shoes are recommended.

Gently brush dry dirt from the suede with a suede brush. Use specialized suede cleaners for stains and a mild soap and water solution for textile parts. Always air dry.

N-ergy is New Balance's proprietary cushioning technology designed to provide excellent shock absorption and energy return, contributing to comfort during wear.

The suede and textile materials are not inherently waterproof. While the Ndurance outsole provides good traction, it's advisable to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials.

The trainers feature a construction combining suede and textile materials for both durability and a layered aesthetic.

The '2002R' refers to the model number, indicating a revival and update of a classic running shoe from the 2000s, re-engineered for modern comfort and style.

Use a suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, apply a dedicated suede cleaner sparingly with a soft cloth or brush, and follow the cleaner's instructions. Allow to air dry completely.

Replace laces with standard shoelaces. Ensure the length and type are appropriate for the trainer's eyelets.

Ensure the Ndurance rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. If the issue persists on slick surfaces, consider the limitations of rubber outsoles in extremely wet or icy conditions.

Ensure the trainers are laced correctly, providing adequate support without being too tight. Break them in gradually by wearing them for shorter periods initially.
